Default Re: Slow down with second set?

>im capping turn and calling river if he leads again.

I like that line. I mean if he bets the river, he wasn't on a flush draw. So he's likely got trips... so he's likely got the KK's (pre-flop raise). However...

And I remember thinking this on this hand or another: though I can expect to be beat by Villain >50% of the time here, does the fact that there are 3 other dummies who obvious don't have me beat calling every bet change my thinking.

Now 2 of 3 dummies would have called his initial bet, I know I can get another bet from them. If I raise, I'm forcing those two to make a mistake... how often does that mistake benefit me?

I'd say like 25% of the time villain has a hand not equal to KK. So 25% of 2BB is 1/2B. It seems safer to go for the 1 overcall, but do situations like this arise where you think you're beat, but still have to be aggressive to take advantage of bad players? Or is that over thinking things as were just getting more money for villain?

I'd probably cap this turn with second nuts and reevaluate on river. The only hand that beats you here is KK.
